I've been in football all my life, gentlemen, and I don't know whether I'm particularly qualified to be a part of anything else, except I consider it a great game, a game of many assets, by the way, and I think a symbol of what this country's best attributes are: courage and stamina and a coordinated efficiency or teamwork.
In Burma, we need to improve education in the country - not only primary education, but secondary and tertiary education. Our education system is very very bad.
